User manual ZOOM 505

[. . . ] Operation Manual Thank you for selecting the ZOOM 505 (hereafter simply called the "505"). Please take the time to read this manual carefully so as to get the most out of your 505 and to ensure optimum performance and reliability. Retain this manual for future reference. ZOOM CORPORATION NOAH Bldg. , 2-10-2, Miyanishi-cho, Fuchu-shi, Tokyo 183, Japan PHONE: 0423-69-7111 FAX: 0423-69-7115 Printed in Japan 505-5000 1 Major Features · 24 individual built-in effects provide maximum flexibility. Up to 9 effects can be used simultaneously in any combination. [. . . ] Mix setting is also optimized. Compressor and auto wah are used together. Higher values result in a more pronounced auto wah effect. Compressor intensity is fixed. Phase Shift Applies a phase-shifted component to the direct sound. The amount of shift varies periodically, giving a breathing effect. Setting range: Distortion Gain Sets the distortion intensity and the depth of the Acoustic effect. Setting range: 1 7 6 (d1 ­ d6) 9 (d7 ­ d9) Pedal Wah With this effect, emphasized frequencies are shifted using an optional expression pedal FP01 connected to the CONTROL IN jack. Setting range: 1 3 0 (1 ­ 30) 1 Higher values result in stronger distortion or greater depth. 9 (P1 ­ P9) Higher values result in longer delay time. Higher values result in a stronger effect. . 1 4 (P1 ­ P4) 9 (P5 ­ P9) Doubling and chorus are used together. Higher values result in longer doubling delay time. Chorus is fixed. Higher values result in a higher pedal wah center frequency. Step Randomly changing filter creates an auto-arpeggio effect. Can also be used together with the chorus effect. Setting range: 5 Compressor and pedal wah are used together. Higher values result in a higher pedal wah center frequency. Compressor intensity is fixed. HINT c Parameter setting shortcut S 1 S 6 (S1 ­ S6) S 7 S 9 (S7 ­ S9) Higher values result in faster speed. Setting range: HINT z Selecting parameters to change pedals for this purpose. Pressing the patch UP pedal (right pedal) moves the parameter cursor (the selected parameter) up. Pressing the patch DOWN pedal (left pedal) moves the parameter cursor (the selected parameter) down. Step and chorus are used together. Higher values result in faster step speed. Chorus is fixed. As described in "Editing Patches", parameters to be edited are selected by repeatedly pressing the EDIT key, but you can also use the patch Normally, parameter values are set by tapping the VALUE + or VALUE - key once for each increment. To allow quick operation in effect modules which contain more than one effect, you can use the shortcut function which is activated by pressing both VALUE keys simultaneously. For example, if you are currently at the "Delay" parameter of the DLY/REV module and the current setting is "d5", you would need to press the VALUE + key 18 times to set the "Room" effect to "r5". However, you can achieve the same effect by activating the shortcut twice and then pressing the VALUE + key 4 times. Pitch Shift Can be used as dual-voice pitch shifter or as a pitch shift + chorus effect. HINT v Volume control with FP01 HINT x Effect module on/off switching parameter cursor position) and patch level setting (lowest parameter cursor setting), the flashing parameter cursor indicates that the corresponding effect module can be turned on or off. The ZNR and AMP modules are turned on and off together. When wishing to disable them individually, you must do this by setting the parameters accordingly. Effect modules can be switched on and off in three ways. Using the VALUE + / - keys When using the VALUE + key to increase the parameter value, the setting following the maximum value is the "effect off" setting. Similarly, when using the VALUE - key to decrease the parameter value, the setting before the minimum value is the "effect off" setting. When the VALUE + key is pressed once in the "effect off" condition, the effect is turned on and the minimum value is set. [. . . ] When you wish to terminate the process, press the EDIT key. Turning the unit off also terminates the recall condition. 4. 16 Specifications Maximum number of simultaneous effects: 9 24 effect types: Compressor, Limiter, Auto Wah, Pedal Wah, Acoustic, Rhythm, Overdrive, Distortion, Blues, Fuzz, Lead, Metal, 4Band Equalizer, Phase, Chorus, Flanger, Doubling, Step, Pitch Shift, Delay, Hall, Room , Amp Simulator, ZNR Effect modules Maximum number of simultaneous modules: 7 (5 modules + 1 block) Banks and patches 6 banks x 4 patches = 24 patches (edit + store possible) Analog/digital conversion 18 bit, 128 times oversampling Digital/analog conversion 16 bit, linear Sampling frequency 31. 25 kHz Input Guitar input (standard monaural phone jack) Rated input level: -20 dBm Input impedance: 470 kilohms Output Combined line/headphone output (standard stereo phone jack) Max. output level: +6 dBm Output load impedance: 10 kilohms or more Control input For optional FP01 or FS01 Display indicator 2-digit, 7-segment LED tuning indicator, parameter cursor indicator Power requirements Optional AC adapter: 9 V DC, 300 mA (Zoom AD-0006) Battery: 6LR61 9 V (alkaline) battery x 1 Battery life: approx.
